Answer:

To know the substances and number of atoms and molecules involve in the chemical equation.

Explanation:

The chemical equations are the linear presentation of chemical reactions. In our day to day life, different kinds of chemical reactions occur such as rusting of iron, curdling of milk. To represent such reactions we use chemical equations, where the left-hand side components are reactants and right-hand components are products. The reactants are the substances that are combined to form the reaction and results of the product. One can write chemical equations in words or in symbols. From the chemical equation, one can know how many numbers of atoms or molecules involve in the chemical reaction.

the purpose of using a chemical equation is to know the reactants and products that occur.

reactants=starting material

products=end result

a lorry travels 3600m on a test track accelerating constantly at 3m/s squared from standstill. what is the final velocity (3 sig

suter [353]

The final velocity of the truck is found as 146.969 m/s.

Explanation:

As it is stated that the lorry was in standstill position before travelling a distance or covering a distance of 3600 m, the initial velocity is considered as zero. Then, it is stated that the lorry travels with constant acceleration. So we can use the equations of motion to determine the final velocity of the lorry when it reaches 3600 m distance.

Thus, a initial velocity (u) = 0, acceleration a = 3 m/s² and the displacement s is 3600 m. The third equation of motion should be used to determine the final velocity as below.

$2as =v^{2} - u^{2} \\\\v^{2} = 2as + u^{2}$

Then, the final velocity will be

$v^{2} = 2 * 3 * 3600 + 0 = 21600\\ \\v=\sqrt{21600}=146.969 m/s$

Thus, the final velocity of the truck is found as 146.969 m/s.

The process by which the gene in the nucleotide suddenly changes its position is called.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Mutation is the process by which the gene in the nucleotide suddenly changes its position

Any change in the structure of a gen or in the usual DNA sequence of a cell is called mutation. It can be caused by mistakes during cell division when the DNA is copied or by the exposure to DNA damaging agents in the environment like UV light or cigarette smoke, and may be transmitted to subsequent generations.

A mutation is a permanent alteration of the nucleotide sequence of an organism, virus or other genetic elements.

There are three types of mutations:

Base substitutions
Deletions
Insertions

The Deoxyribonucleic acid, also called DNA, is the hereditary material that carries genetic information for the development and functioning of humans and almost all other organisms. DNA is made of nucleotides.

The cabinet is mounted on coasters and has a mass of 45 kg. The casters are locked to prevent the tires from rotating. The coeff

stira [4]

Answer:

the force P required for impending motion is 132.3 N

the largest value of "h" allowed if the cabinet is not to tip over is 0.8 m

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of the cabinet m = 45 kg

coefficient of static friction μ = 0.30

A free flow body diagram illustrating what the question represents is attached in the file below;

The given condition from the question let us realize that ; the casters are locked to prevent the tires from rotating.

Thus; considering the forces along the vertical axis ; we have :

$\sum f_y =0$

The upward force and the downward force is :

$N_A+N_B = mg$

where;

$\mathbf { N_A \ and \ N_B}$ are the normal contact force at center point A and B respectively .

$N_A+N_B = 45*9.8$

$N_A+N_B = 441$ ------- equation (1)

Considering the forces on the horizontal axis:

$\sum f_x = 0$

$F_A +F_B = P$

where ;

$\mathbf{ F_A \ and \ F_B }$ are the static friction at center point A and B respectively.

which can be written also as:

$\mu_s N_A + \mu_s N_B = P$

$\mu_s( N_A + N_B) = P$

replacing our value from equation (1)

P = 0.30 ( 441)

P = 132.3 N

Thus; the force P required for impending motion is 132.3 N

b) Since the horizontal distance between the casters A and B is 480 mm; Then half the distance = 480 mm/2 = 240 mm = 0.24 cm

the largest value of "h" allowed for the cabinet is not to tip over is calculated by determining the limiting condition of the unbalanced torque whose effect is canceled by the normal reaction at $N_A$ and it is shifted to $N_B$ :
